Overview

• Justice N. Anand Venkatesh directed the Tambaram Taluk Tahsildar to decide on Boney Kapoor’s April 22, 2025 representation within four weeks.
• Kapoor seeks cancellation of a 2005 legal heirship certificate obtained by three people who claim shares as a second wife and two children.
• The petition argues the alleged 1975 marriage cannot be valid because the first wife died in 1999, which would defeat claims under the Hindu Succession Act.
• Kapoor contends the Tambaram revenue office lacked authority to issue the certificate since the original owner’s family resided in Mylapore.
• Sridevi purchased the ECR property on April 19, 1988, and her family states it has remained in their possession as a farmhouse since then.
